Models over 50 are having a moment. So are models who are also reality stars. Sadie Robertson joins Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner as another teen TV star to hit the runway.

“I would love to continue to model it just depends on what opportunities I get,” Robertson told PEOPLE. “Of course, I want to always stay true to who I am and make sure in everything I do God is getting the glory. If modeling is one of those things that keeps presenting itself to me I would love to do it and continue to get more involved.”
The 17-year-old star has quite an impressive résumé already. She came in second place on the last season of Dancing With the Stars and made her modeling debut at Sherri Hill’s show in 2013.

“I love to collaborate with Sherri Hill because they are a family just like Duck Dynasty and Duck Commander,” she said. “Most people don’t realize this, but the whole family works together in the business. They are super nice people. Mrs. Sherri does an amazing job really capturing my message of ‘living original.’ We just make a good match.” (Both Kendall and Kylie Jenner made also made their modeling debuts with the designer!)
